Tutu Atwell Placed on Injured Reserve
The Los Angeles Rams placed wide receiver Tutu Atwell (hamstring) on Injured Reserve on Monday, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Now that he's on IR, Atwell will be forced to miss at least four games and won't be eligible to return until Week 13 against the Carolina Panthers on Nov. 30. The 26-year-old has been a depth option for the Rams' WR corps this year, but he did have a two-week streak with three catches, 160 yards and a touchdown as a deep threat for quarterback Matthew Stafford. He was unable to capitalize on Puka Nacua's (ankle) absence in Week 6 in London in the win over the Jacksonville Jaguars in which he played just 10 offensive snaps due to his hamstring injury. While Atwell is on the shelf, look for Jordan Whitting to play a bigger role as a complementary piece behind Nacua and Davante Adams, who have been target hogs in the Rams' passing attack.
